This hits it on the head! There are only a handful of major cities in the US that have a truly effective mass transit system.
I'm not a bus person, but I'd ride a train everywhere if I could.
Dallas has it started with the light rail, but with only two main lines that serve the northeast area, it's not getting to the faster growing areas due north and northeast.
I took the train to a seminar a few months ago that was downtown with numerous other people that was their first time riding it. It amazed me to hear people say that they wouldn't want to ride it everyday. It's much more peaceful and relaxing than driving the 30 miles in ungodly traffic to me. Not to mention the savings. A monthly rail pass is $40 with free parking at the rail stations.
